' remove the substanca from the bag or the like container.

To this end the container, which is of paper, of waterproof cloth or of a suitable cellulosic or the like material is provided with apertures 15 or perforations adapted'to be closed through a folding of the material forming the bag.

Moreover the container is suiiiciently deep for the solid volatile substance to be capable of occ pyinga plurality of positions, for one of which .0 it does not face the apertures provided for evaporation, and for another of which it faces these apertures. Preferably the bag is arranged in a manner such that it assumes naturally, for use, a position such that the volatile substance falls .ilithrough gravityinto the second of these positions.

A form of execution of a bag executed according to the present invention has been described hereinbelow by way of example and-illustrated 30 in accompanying drawing.

Fig. 1 shows the bag lying flat.

Fig. 2 is a longitudinal axial crow-section of this bag containing a plate or tablets of the volatile substance, in the position used for sale.

Itispossible,ifdesired,tokeep the folded part of the bag in contact with the other part of the bag by means of a hook, a little glue or the like. When the bagis folded as explained, the volatile substance. 7 does not evaporate or evaporates hardly at'all. The bag is sold in this folded state. I

When it is desired to use the volatile substance, it is suflicient to unfold the foldedend of the bag, and to hang the bag qiig. 3) through the eye 6; under such conditions, the cake '1 falls towards the end 4 of the bag and comes in front of the perforations 5. The cake 7 can thus evaporate regularlyand its emanations difluse outwardly through the perforations 5.

Obviously the line of fold 8 might be at a slightly diiferent place. Also the perforations 5 are not necessarily provided along a single line. Several such lines may be provided at different heights on the bag and the folding of the end of v the bag may be effected through several folds so as to cover in succession the different lines of perforations. Thus for instance the bag may allow varying degrees of evaporation according. as to whether it is unfolded partly with a single line of uncovered perforations or completely with several uncovered lines of perforations, whereby an adjustment of the rate of evaporation of the volatile substance is rendered possible.

Of course the perforations are not of necessity in alinement. Similarly the solid volatile substance is not necessarily constituted'by a cake.

It is sumcient that the fragmentary portions thereof are large enough to prevent their through the perforations.
